Craig Fehrman opens a rich new window into presidential biography. Beginning with Thomas Jefferson's Notes on the State of Virginia, the first presidential book to influence a campaign, and John Adams's Autobiography, the first score-settling presidential memoir, Fehrman draws on newly uncovered information, including never-before-published letters from Andrew Jackson, John F. Kennedy, and Ronald Reagan, to offer insights into the aspirations and inner lives of the nation's presidents.
